Thw only coach they can hire is Jimbo as he does not need the money. I don’t see many leaving Duke and the other coaches are just fine where they are. 60 year old Jimbo it will be.

I keep hearing this. But realistically, even if jimbo just wants to get back into coaching, there’s not a chance he doesn’t for cheap just to do them a favor. I mean, he has a pretty easy gig right now. And he’d give that up to face the grind of running a big brand college football program for peanuts? In his mind, he should think he deserves at least as much as norvell was getting. He has a much better resume, a championship pedigree. So at the end of the day, why he would do it as a charity case?

Ego. It’s really that simple.

I don’t think we can over look coaches making decisions based on the next round of realignment. We can **** talk FSU all we want. But you know who has zero chance of jumping to the Big Ten or SEC? WF. FSU will end up somewhere. And I doubt WF even gets the Big 12 call. So while yes, FSU is a dumpster fire but not jumping at a job that’s either in the Big 10 or SEC, or a school probably making that move could kill his trajectory.

I personally think, he will keep FSU warm and jump ship for Wisconsin if they wise up and fire Fickell.

Absolutely. But a guy who is 17-5 his first 2 years at Wake Forest is going to have bigger interest than FSU.

I agree, I think he could get his pick of jobs this offseason. Could be a lot of good jobs open this offseason.

I asked my FSU fan coworker, he likes the idea of Jimbo too. Maybe not that much, but I think some of that fanbase legitimately thinks Jimbo will be good enough to get them into the expanded playoff.

He’s not gong to be able to recruit like he did when we had golden / sanctions .

They could hire literally any coach, and the least concern I would have is recruiting. I’m not even sweating any hire they can potentially make. Mario has a multiple years head start and I don’t see his recruiting machine getting stopped any time soon.

PLEASE hire Jimbo Fisher, FSU. Never mind the fact that outside of the guys that fought in WWII and returned, no major program that has rehired a coach for a second nonconsecutive tenure has had a better experience than the first go around. Bill Snyder is a unique outlier, because he may be the only guy on the planet that can consistently win big at KSU.

John Robinson USC(Easily the most successful coach on this list, three ranked finishes, 1 Rose Bowl win, 2 Pac-10 co-championships but USC never seriously challenged for a National Championship)
Johnny Majors Pitt(12 wins in four seasons, COMBINED)
Greg Schiano Rutgers(2 winning seasons in seven years, both 7-6 records)
Randy Edsall UConn(6 wins in four seasons, COMBINED)
Mack Brown UNC(1 Bowl Win, 1 Ranked Finish in six seasons)
Bobby Petrino Louisville(1 Bowl win, 2 Ranked Finishes in five seasons)

All of these coaches were significantly less successful the second time around. Robinson, Petrino and Brown may be the only ones that weren't complete greasefires.
 
I've heard from several nolie friends that the buyouts of the coaches fired reach close to $60M. If true, I cannot think of a scenario where the nolies buy out a HC at a P4 school, give him a top 25 contract, plus hire a coaching staff. You're talking a total of what, $100MM in year one? I guess perhaps the nolies can spread out Norvell's buyout a few years lessening the output of cash. Then you have NIL. You figure at least $30M.
Don't know, but math tells me Jimbo, an OC, or some G5 coach.

Jimbo would be great..everybody is forgetting what happened with him.

He left FSU because of limited resources..went to a school with unlimited resources..then got fired from that school for poor performance despite the unlimited resources.

Now he's going back to the school with limited resources?

would be perfect.

The argument I hear from my normal minded Nole friends, is his floor is 7-8 wins. And right now they are ok with that. lol
